Hello doctor can you make a video about removal of temporary restorations as this looks really difficult when the shade is so close to the tooth prepared without damaging our preparation or margins
Thank you so much dr what a generous man you must be, i mean even paid courses don't teach us in that detail but you did it.. i rarely subscribe ytb channels...you earned my respect & subscription 😄. Love you, from Pakistan 🇵🇰🇵🇰
Thank you, I am excited to try this technique. Veneer temporaries have always been very frustrating - take too long, come off when you don't want them to, etc.
Hello Dr. Stevenson! Thank you so much for all of your amazing videos and the value that you are providing to the dental community all around the world! You have mentioned that you are planning to create a video on the cementation of the veneers and occlusal adjustments. Also, in another video, you've mentioned creating a video about CCP (Constrictive Chewing Pattern) Do you know when you will be creating the videos on these topis? Thank you very much! Best regards! Dr. Alexandru Chireu
Dear Dr Stevenson, thank you for sharing knowledge and would be happy to follow your work and your recommendations, Brotherly Dr Nacer Ouazzani, Morocco
usually, I simply use a large spoon and grab a gingival margin and lift upwards. The temps are thin and typically break off. Sometimes, I'll use a piezo to vibrate off excess material. Rarely, I'll use a thin diamond very very carefully to section thick areas and use the spoon to pry the two halves apart.
The two-step approach allows you to control the location of the cervical segment - to keep it flush with the margins and out of the sulcus. If you make it in one piece, (since it cannot be removed without breaking to trim) the excess into the embrasures, sulcus, and tissue will leave uncleanable areas and tissue inflammation during the delivery appointment.
Hello Doctor, please could you explain to me how these provisionals are removed for the final restorations? would it be challenging since you used adhesive system technique? Can it be done with temporary cement? Please, I would appreciate a response from you. Thanks a lot for these videos! :)
They come off very easy with a spoon since the middle of the facial is etched with a small etch pattern. After the bulk of the veneers are removed, the excess adhesive may be removed with either a disc or intramural air abrasion unit. Temporary cements simply don't work well - poor retention.
hello dr. could i ask you why this method of provisionals is better than the conventional way that the temporary crown material cover the whole preparation ?? why we make provisionals in two steps ??
Great question. This technique allows the dentist to carefully control the placement of composite along the gingival margin area. This will keep the composite from overlapping into the tissue and making for a difficult clean up and potential damage to margins.
Hello sir, I’m a dentist from Thailand. Can I attend your class, or you accept only US dental licenced dentists? I have the Thai dental licence tho but not US licence. Thank you for the valuable lecture!
Doc, what's your at home protocol for patients in veneer temps? I usually like to give them an endo syringe with a fuzzy tip and have them use peroxide around the gingiva for one week and then switch to chlorhexodrine in the same manner for 4 days prior to insert date. Also super floss everyday and a rubber tip stimulator on any areas that have been lasered. Just wondering what your post op instructions include. Thanks for the great videos and looking forward to seeing more!.
Very Good Question! I think these are often ideal solutions. Direct bonding veneers and diastema closures have been great conservative and more appropriate and affordable options that we've employed for decades. Take a 15 year old for example with a peg lateral - perfect case for a direct composite veneer or a componeer. Best, Dr. S
The series was designed to teach fundamentals. Patient cases will be very similar with attention to existing enamel and structure, esthetic parameters, dynamic occlusal factors, and of course the periodontal health of the patient. We teach a three day course that covers most of this and includes live patient demos.
Thank you for your educational content! It's great! Learning lots! Did you ever make the video on veneers and occlusion? I'm hungry for this knowledge...
dr i want to know how you manage the tooth after removing the temps and you are doing final cementation on teeth. you put an adhesive how to you clean the tooth without causing anu issues on the fit thanks
Oh - got it. I have not made a video of this yet. Essentially the spot etching allows for retention, and yet very easy clean up. I remove residual adhesive with a piezo on low energy or a sharp instrument. To verify fit, Bausch ArtiSpray blue or green to spray onto the preps before try in to uncover possible hang ups to seating. The areas will be obvious and easily removed - occasionally with a composite disk - never a diamond bur. The ArtiSpray left on the tooth may be cleaned off with a trophy brush/air abrasion.
Usually with a spoon excavator at the gingival with an upward twist. When that doesn't free them, I make a slit through the incisal, careful not to hit the tooth, and use the spoon to once again twist the slit area and crack the temps into two pieces. The residual spot bond may be easily air abraded away. Will try to make a video during my Veneer Course later this year.
Great video Dr👍✌️❤️,,, But how you can removed the provisional and especially flowble composite with easy way from the teeth without damaged preparation or harm gingiva,,,
Engage the margin and up fracture. This is only spot bonded and is easy to remove. Residual material left on the facial surface may be removed with a light sand blasting
@@mohammedalattar8418 ALWAYS best to remove excess with a microbrush, then cure. The final step may involve smoothing and polishing the margin with care...
Why would you remove about 1mm incisal to the gingival margin and put composite there instead? What's the point of doing this instead of just filling up with temp material? And do bisacryl stick to the spot etch/bonded area the same way the composites do?
@@StevensonDentalSolutions Thank you. I am about to do my first veneer case. Do you know a program that goes over what to do regarding incisal wear, posterior wear cases and when it is indicated to change CR, deprogram for veneer cases? I don't want my veneers to chip off or pop off because of their grinding habits.
@@JoonKimDMD Our course in August covers this an much more i detail. stevensondentalsolutions.com/product/anterior-ceramic-restorations-august-20-22-2021/
Yes, you can. I usually don’t because I haven’t etched or applied adhesive to the adjacent tooth and nothing bonds in this area. Your method would work very well though! Thank you for your question!
Thank you very much doctor ... i have one thing that confuses me and I appreciate it if u clarify it to me ... in so many clinics they do veneers to lengthen the tooth but without any prep of the incisal edge and no butt margin ... even when i asked my doctor in college he said that there is no need today to prep the incisal edge even if you are lengthening the tooth
If you lengthen the tooth 2.0 mm, then it is possible to avoid a prep, but this will leave the lingual margin shape dependent on the contours of the linguioincisal line angle - this area is rounded typically and lacks a clean finish line. Thinning the ceramic to cover the curved transition from the incisal to the lingual presents numerous problems for the technician as well. You simply can not feather ceramic to a knife edge, that is why we insist on shoulder-like finish lines for butt joint margins with ceramics. If you wish to lengthen less than 2 mm, then prepping is necessary for the above reason AND additionally to allow for more incisal effects in the final case. I have seen many NO PREP cases as your professor recommends and none of them is excellent - they are all simply "acceptable." Excellence is a path that few chose to travel...
@@StevensonDentalSolutions in simple sentence, we make reduction for veneer to get enough room for ceramic to seat it and get great retention also . Is that right ??
Hi Dr.Stevenson ! Just ordered a bunch of veneer prep stuff from your website and excited to use them on my patient this week . I have a question and appreciate your feedback . If I etch and bond like you showed in the video , can the composite attached be removed using the Kerr optidisks I got from your website ? Or is there anything else I should use ? If I can , would the coarse one be good enough ? Thank you !
Yes, try the coarse dry with air spray to remove the spot binding - should be enough. Also, you can spray the tooth with Arti-Spray and try in the veener to fin any residual high spots if not seating. Best wishes!

Engage the margin and up fracture. This is only spot bonded and is easy to remove. Residual material left on the facial surface may be removed with a light sand blasting
Can spot etching and bonding lead to pressure sensitivity in that area since the provisional is only connected in one tiny spot?
Sometimes, but preps are typically in enamel for the most part, and even if not the sensitivity is fleeting and rarely an issue.
With the etch and the bonding, how is it when we have to remove it (making sure nothing is left prohibiting proper seating of the porcelain veneer)?
I recommend NOT curing the adhesive prior to the cementation of the veneer - the bonding layer will not inhibit the full seating.
@@StevensonDentalSolutions and doctor if we use etch and bond like you said , we are gonna to remove it by instrument or we remove it by hand piece?
